Pages showing in the background when closing Firefox
Not so much a problem, just something I've noticed and wondered about the reasons for it. When closing down Firefox, even if only one tab is open, I noticed momentarily a previous session appear behind the closing page i.e. browsing navigating from page to page within the same tab, close down and one of the previous pages momentarily appears for a millisecond.

Still no one has come up with an answer ! ! ! Seems to be video's viewed that hang in memory. Closing down Firefox, paused video momentarily shows on screen, even video's viewed on You Tube some hours before. Surely this has to be a security flaw as anyone closing the browser could see what has been viewed?
Sounds like a problem with the plugin-container.
Many thanks cor-el, have done as advised. Will see how things go before saying problem solved. Cheers.
Sadly now seem to get nothing but trouble with Firefox, this is really disappointing as I have loyally been using the browser virtually from when it was first created all those years ago. Crashes, seizes up, stops responding, video's continue to run in the background, can't watch video's on Vimeo ! ! I have tried everything to cure the problems but there comes a time where you just have to give up and I have given up. Other browsers seem to be working fine. Firefox use to be such a stable and efficient browser but perhaps the time has come for me to go elsewhere. Shame but have no option.
